To make La Salsa di 5 Minuti (more like 15 minuti)

Heat the olive oil in a saucepan and add the onion, garlic, and crush red pepper. Gently fry ingredients together, about 5 minutes.

Add pureed plum tomatoes to saucepan. Simmer on low to medium heat for 10 minutes.

Season with salt, to taste. Add basil leaves at the very end.

To make the pasta

Cook the pasta to al dente according to package directions.

While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a saucepan. Add the garlic, sun dried tomatoes, black olives, and crushed red pepper. Cook until the garlic turns golden in color, but not burnt.

Pour in the tomato sauce and cook for a few minutes.

Drain the canned tuna and add it to the sauce. Stir gently being careful not to break up the tuna too much as it will break down more when the pasta is mixed in. Cook for an additional minute.

Add the whipping cream and cook all together on high heat until the sauce is very hot but not bubbling.

Add the pasta directly from the pasta pot into the sauce. Finish cooking directly in the sauce for an additional minute.

Sprinkle the dish with parsley and drizzle with the best extra-virgin olive oil available. Serve immediately.
